My D456 can't be found by realsense viewer

    Hello, I would advise against using AI tools such as ChatGPT for finding RealSense instructions because the AI can produce incorrect information that can cause problems.  For example, if the AI instructions advised to downgrade the firmware driver of a D456 to the old version 5.13.0.50 then doing that would stop the D456 from working because the minimum firmware that works with D456 is the newer 5.15.1.0 version.

     

    Do you recall if you performed a firmware downgrade to an older version, please?

     

    If the firmware has been downgraded to a version older than 5.15.1.0 then it is a problem that is unfortunately not able to be fixed with software.  If you purchased the camera within the past 12 months then it should still be within the warranty period and so you can contact the retailer that you purchased the D456 from to enquire about a replacement under warranty.

    Thank you for your response!
    I think the version is still 5.17.0.10 .
    There didn't have any instructions advised to downgrade the firmware.

    It is good to hear that you have the latest 5.17.0.10 firmware and have not downgraded it.

     

    Which version of the RealSense SDK are you using, please?  The 5.17.0.10 firmware is designed to be used with SDK version 2.56.4 and 2.56.5.

     

    Are RealSense programs such as rs-enumerate-devices and realsense-viewer able to access the camera if you launch the programs in 'sudo' admin permissions mode like this:

    sudo rs-enumerate-devices

    sudo realsense-viewer

    Thanks , bro !

    It works in 'sudo' admin permissions mode.

    I changed the groups in to plugdev , so I never thought it.

    How to change it in to common mode?
    Or I have to use it like this if I want to use with ROS?

    I'm pleased to hear that using sudo mode enabled your D456 to be accessed.

     

    Some users have found that removing all previous installations of librealsense from their computer and then installing it again (to ensure that there is only one installation of the SDK on the computer) has resolved the problem of the camera only being detected when using sudo mode. 

     

    A RealSense user with a Jetson AGX Orin shares the procedure that they used to solve the problem here and also provided advice on what they did to resolve their ROS problem:

    I am not familiar with configuring groups, such as plugdev.  However, a user who could not detect the camera without sudo and had set plugdev as their group resolved the problem by following the advice in the above link.
